Yin Yang (Bracelet)

The Eastern energy field interwoven with warp and weft in the string bracelet

Using rope as a medium, inheriting the millennium old Taoist philosophy

In the long scroll of Eastern civilization, string has been a spiritual carrier connecting heaven, earth, and humanity since ancient times. This Chinese style retro bracelet is based on sixteen strands of cotton and linen ancient rope, and is intricately woven with Dai Qing and black silk threads using intangible cultural heritage twisting techniques. Each spiral texture is in line with the cosmology of “Tai Chi Sheng Er Yi” in the Book of Changes. The rope has a warm and skin friendly touch, but reveals a rough and primitive tension in the details – just as the Taoist saying goes, ‘great craftsmanship is as simple as a fool’, condensing the wisdom of the unity of heaven and man into every inch of the wrist.

Alloy hexagrams, recasting the modern spirit of ancient civilization

The Taiji Pisces totem at the core of the bracelet is made of aerospace grade zinc alloy and cast in one piece. The yin-yang Pisces presents a flowing texture through laser etching technology with a precision of 0.01mm. The Yang fisheye is inlaid with broken stars of lapis lazuli, while the Yin fisheye is adorned with Indian red chalcedony, forming a visual allegory of “yang in yin, yin in yang” in the flow of light. The eight hexagram accessories surrounding the main totem are replicated from the ancient book “Yi Shu Gou Yin Tu” of the Northern Song Dynasty. Each hexagram and line pattern has been calibrated by archaeologists, and the alloy surface is made with three layers of old craftsmanship, simulating the mottled texture of unearthed bronze ware after years of oxidation, giving new life to the wisdom symbols from three thousand years ago.

The mystery of the Nine Palaces hides a code that intertwines time and space

The designer drew inspiration from the “Zi Wei Dou Shu Tu” in the Dunhuang scripture cave and embedded nine gilded brass spacers between the knots. Each piece of oracle bone script is engraved with numerical symbols, arranged according to the numerology of the Nine Palaces in the Book of Luo. Fingertips caress the concave and convex inscriptions, as if touching the turtle shell used for divination in the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The specially designed Tai Chi rotating ball is cast using the lost wax method, with micro ball bearings hidden inside the ball. With a gentle flick, it can rotate 360 degrees, forming a micro “Feng Shui Bureau” – this is the ultimate interpretation of the concept of “continuous flow” in modern mechanical aesthetics.

Cross disciplinary aesthetics, connecting ancient and modern fashion philosophy

The main rope is specially infused with a nano anti fouling coating, which not only preserves the natural texture of cotton and linen, but also endows modern urban life with practicality. The detachable tassel pendant is adorned with miniature eight trigram bells, making a refreshing sound while walking, creating an unexpected mix and match aesthetic with contemporary minimalist clothing. The designer has also developed the “Three Circle Stacking Wearing Method”, which combines bracelets with smart watches and leather wristbands, allowing the mystical hexagrams and technological symbols to engage in a dialogue across time and space on the wrist.
